Your
meteorite won't play any more or is about to die? Looks like a case for the
Meteorite Doctor, he's the only one who can help there. Will stand by your site
with patience, competence and plenty of good advice.URL: www.meteorite.com/clinic.htm

The
asteroids are the place of origin of the meteorites. Spectacular images of the
asteroid Eros are provided by the NEAR Shoemaker Space Probe, under:

It
may look somewhat unusual and commercially awkward to be advertising for
competitors on my own site. But having often been asked for closer supply
sources, in the American-dominated internet market, and knowing, for I am a
collector myself, the difficulty of finding fitting suppliers, I consider it a
natural service to list the most important European meteorite dealers here. If
you should be missing one or the other supplier, then please let me know that
contact so I can add it.
My personal estimations as to the price level and my comments have an objective
founding: a comparison between all the offers of 38 meteorite dealers worldwide,
which I carry out on a regular half-yearly basis.

Dieter
Heinlein, known in the German speaking countries as the head of the department
"Meteorites" of the Vereinigung der Sternfreunde e.V. ('Association of
the Friends of the Stars'), always has a little assortment on display, at prices
that, altogether, are somewhat below average.

All
prices are below, some far below average, many of them are absolute lowest
prices. All in all, the Haiderer couple are the cheapest suppliers on the market
and should therefore be the first address on the net for all collectors.

Wide and differentiated offer. Unbalanced pricing. Tends to be somewhat more
expensive for the most usual meteorites. Many rare localities at often very fair
prices, also some very good offers for the rarer categories. Regular special
offers of historic fells and meteorites which almost never come into the market,
at incredibly interesting conditions.

Immense store! On their website, however, only the highlights are presented:
Rare and rarest categories, among these R and angrite, and some of the
historically most important meteorites. In the rare categories often interesting
prices (for the others there are no possibilities of comparison, as the Labennes
are the only ones worldwide to offer them). For desert finds of ordinary
chondrites, they are the cheapest suppliers on the market, because they have
them first hand. Advantageous discounts. Highly recommendable.

Likewise
specialised in desert finds. Rare categories, too. I haven't carried out the
comparison of prices yet, as these are communicated on demand only. The prices
for the three classic localities on offer are partly low.

quality has its price, special offers can be found on the mailing-list.

If
you are looking for a particular meteorite and your search has so far been
futile, then I might be able to help you with my comprehensive comparative
list and refer you to the cheapest supplier (free of charge).
And if you'd like to offer or swap a meteorite yourself and aren't quite sure
about its value, then I will be glad to let you know the current collectors'
price.
Furthermore I buy meteorites myself and pay them above traders' prices.
I also like to swap, offering value compensations, if applicable.

I
am always there for your suggestions, complaints, offers, queries, and am
particularly grateful for any hints about cheap sources of meteorites and
historic star maps:
